TECHNICAL FIELD

One or more implementations of the present specification relate to the field of machine learning, and in particular, to processing sequential interaction data through machine learning.

BACKGROUND

In many scenarios, user interaction events need to be analyzed and processed. An interaction event is one of basic constituent elements of an Internet event. For example, a click behavior performed by a user when browsing a page can be regarded as an interaction event between the user and a content block of the page, a purchase behavior in e-commerce can be regarded as an interaction event between a user and a product, and an inter-account transfer behavior is an interaction event between users. A series of interaction events of a user reflect features of the user such as habit/preference and features of interaction objects, which are an important source of features of a machine learning model. Therefore, in many scenarios, interaction participants need to be expressed and modeled based on interaction events.

However, interaction events involve both interaction parties, and the status of each party can be dynamically changed. Therefore, it is very difficult to comprehensively consider a plurality of features of the interaction parties to accurately express their features. Therefore, an improved solution is needed to analyze the interaction objects more effectively to obtain feature vectors suitable for subsequent analysis.

In this case, the positional encoding includes the quantity of edges that each node passes relative to the current node, and whether the node is the left node or the right node.

Further, if there are a plurality of attention layers, the neural network model can combine N output vectors obtained by each of the plurality of attention layers to obtain a feature vector of the current node.

In another implementation, the neural network model can alternatively combine the N output vectors obtained by the last attention layer in the plurality of attention layers to obtain a feature vector of the current node.

DESCRIPTION OF IMPLEMENTATIONS

The solutions provided in the present specification are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As described above, interaction participants (that is, interaction objects) need to be expressed and modeled based on interaction events.

In one solution, a static interaction relationship network graph is constructed based on historical interaction events, so that interaction objects can be analyzed based on the interaction relationship network graph. Specifically, the interaction network graph can be formed by using the participants of each historical event as nodes and establishing edges between the nodes with an interaction relationship.

FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B illustrate interaction network diagrams in specific examples. More specifically, FIG. 1A is a bipartite graph, which includes user nodes U1-U4 and product nodes (V1-V3). If a user has purchased a product, edges are established between the user and the product. FIG. 1B is a diagram illustrating a user transfer relationship, where each node represents a user, and there are edges between the two users for whom a transfer record has been generated.

However, it can be seen that although FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B illustrate an interaction relationship between objects, they do not include time sequence information of these interaction events. If embedding is performed based on such a simple interaction relationship network graph, obtained feature vectors do not express the influence of the time sequence information of the interaction events on the nodes. In addition, such a static graph is not highly scalable, and thus it is difficult to deal with new interaction events and new nodes flexibly.

In another solution, for each interaction object to be analyzed, a behavior sequence of the object is constructed, and the feature expression of the object is extracted based on the behavior sequence. However, such an action sequence represents only the behavior of the object to be analyzed, and the interaction event is a multi-party event, and the influence is indirectly transmitted between participants through the interaction event. As a result, this approach does not express the influence between the participants in the interaction event.

In consideration of the previous factors, according to one or more implementations of the present specification, a dynamic interaction graph is constructed based on dynamic interaction event sequences that are dynamically changed, where interaction objects involved in each interaction event corresponds to the nodes in the dynamic interaction graph. For the interaction object to be analyzed, a sequence related to a corresponding node is obtained from the dynamic interaction graph, and the sequence includes associated leaf nodes and positional encodings of the leaf nodes relative to the node to be analyzed, and the sequence is input into the Transformer-based neural network model to obtain the feature vector expression of the interaction object.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating an implementation scenario, according to an implementation. As shown in FIG. 2, a plurality of interaction events that sequentially occur can be organized into a dynamic interaction sequence <E₁, E₂, . . . , E_(N)> in chronological order, where each element E_(i) denotes an interaction event and can be represented as an interaction feature group E_(i)=(a_(i), b_(i), t_(i)), where a_(i) and b_(i) are two interaction objects of the event E_(i), and t_(i) is the interaction time.

According to the implementations of the present specification, a dynamic interaction graph 200 is constructed based on the dynamic interaction sequence. In the dynamic interaction graph 200, interaction objects a_(i) and b_(i) in each interaction event are represented by nodes, and edges are established between the events with the same object. A structure of the dynamic interaction graph 200 is described in more detail later.

For an interaction object to be analyzed, a current node corresponding to the interaction object in the dynamic interaction graph can be determined, and sequence data of the node whose root node is the current node in the dynamic interaction graph can be obtained. Generally, a certain quantity of leaf nodes reachable through the edges of the current node can be selected to form a node sequence. In addition, the positional encoding of each leaf node relative to the current node is obtained as the node sequence data. The sequence data reflects the influence imposed by other objects in interaction events directly or indirectly associated with the current interaction object on the current node.

Then, the node sequence data is input into the Transformer-based neural network model, and the feature vector of the current interaction object is obtained based on the model. The obtained feature vector can be used to extract the time sequence information of the associated interaction events and the influence between the interaction objects in each interaction event, so that deep features of the interaction object can be expressed more accurately. Such feature vectors can subsequently be used in various machine learning models and service scenarios. For example, reinforcement learning can be performed based on such feature vectors, or clustering can be performed based on the feature vectors, for example, clustering users into groups. In addition, classification prediction can be performed based on such feature vectors, for example, predicting whether an interaction will occur between two objects (for example, whether a user will purchase a product), or predicting a service classification of an object (for example, a risk level of a user).

The following describes a specific implementation of the previous conception.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method for processing sequential interaction data, according to an implementation. It should be understood that the method can be performed by using any device, platform, or device cluster that has computation and processing capabilities. The following describes the steps in the method for processing sequential interaction data shown in FIG. 3 with reference to a specific implementation.

First, in step 31, a dynamic interaction graph constructed based on a dynamic interaction sequence is obtained.

As described above, a dynamic interaction sequence can include a plurality of interaction events arranged in chronological order. For example, the dynamic interaction sequence is expressed as <E₁, E₂, . . . , E_(N)>, where E_(i) denotes an interaction event and can be represented as an interaction feature group E_(i)=(a_(i), b_(i), t_(i)), where a_(i) and b_(i) are two interaction objects of the event E_(i), and t_(i) is the interaction time. As such, in general, the dynamic interaction sequence includes a plurality of feature groups (a_(i), b_(i), t_(i)) corresponding to a plurality of interaction events arranged in chronological order, and each interaction feature group includes at least two objects that interact (such as a first object and a second object) and the interaction time.

In an implementation, based on the features of an interaction event, the two objects that interact can be objects of different classifications, such as an object of a first classification and an object of a second classification. For example, on an e-commerce platform, an interaction event can be a user's purchase behavior, where the first object can be a user (the object of the first classification), and the second object can be a product (the object of the second classification). For another example, an interaction event can be a user's click behavior on a page block, where the first object can be a user (the object of the first classification), and the second object can be a page block (the object of the second classification).

In other implementations, two objects involved in an interaction event can be similar objects of the same classification. For example, in an instant messaging scenario, an interaction event can be instant messaging between two users. In this case, both the first object and the second object are users and are objects of the same classification. Alternatively, in an electronic payment platform, an interaction event can be a transfer between two users. In this case, both the first object and the second object are users of the electronic payment platform and are objects of the same classification.

In some other implementations, whether to differentiate the classifications of two interaction objects can be determined based on a service requirement. For example, for a transfer interaction event in the preceding example, the two users are considered to be of the same classification. In other examples, based on the service requirement, the transfer-out user can be considered as an object of a first classification, and the receiving user can be considered as an object of a second classification.

Further, in an implementation, the interaction feature group corresponding to each interaction event can further include a behavior feature f. As such, each interaction feature group can be represented as X_(i)=(a_(i), t_(i), f). Specifically, the behavior feature f can include background and context information of an interaction, some attribute features of the interaction, etc. For example, if the interaction event is a user click event, the behavior feature f can include the classification of a terminal used by the user to perform the click behavior, a browser classification, an app version, etc.

A dynamic interaction graph can be constructed based on the dynamic interaction sequence described above. Specifically, each first object and second object in each feature group in the dynamic interaction sequence are used as nodes of the dynamic interaction graph. As such, a node can correspond to an object in a feature group of an interaction event, but the same physical object may correspond to a plurality of nodes. For example, if user U1 buys product M1 at time t1 and product M2 at time t2, there are two interaction feature groups (U1, M1, t1) and (U1, M2, t2), then nodes U1 (t1) and U1 (t2) are created for user U1 based on the two interaction feature groups. Therefore, a node in the dynamic interaction graph corresponds to the state of an interaction object in an interaction event.

For each node in the dynamic interaction graph, leaf nodes are determined and edges are constructed as follows. For any node i, assuming that the node corresponds to an interaction event i (the interaction time is t), then in the dynamic interaction sequence, the interaction event j (the interaction time is t−, where t− is earlier than t) of the first object u, which also contains the node i, is searched forward from the interaction event i (that is, traced back to the direction earlier than the interaction time t); that is, the last interaction event j in which the object u participates is searched. Two nodes corresponding to two objects in the interaction feature group of the last interaction event j are used as two leaf nodes of the node i, and the edges between the node i and the leaf nodes are established.

The following description is based on specific examples. FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a dynamic interaction sequence and a dynamic interaction graph constructed based on the dynamic interaction sequence, according to an implementation. Specifically, the left side of FIG. 4 shows the dynamic interaction sequence organized in chronological order. For example, the interaction events E₁, E₂, . . . , E₆ that respectively occur at t₁, t₂, . . . , t₆ are shown, where the feature group of each interaction event includes two interaction objects involved in the interaction and as the interaction time. The right side of FIG. 4 shows a dynamic interaction graph constructed based on the dynamic interaction sequence on the left, where two interaction objects in each interaction event are used as nodes. Next, node A (t₆) is used as an example to describe determining of leaf nodes and construction of edges.

As shown in the figure, the node A (t6) represents an interaction object A in the interaction event E₆. Therefore, during the tracing starting from the interaction event E₆, the detected last interaction event that includes the interaction object A is E₄; that is, E₄ is the last interaction event in which that A participates. Accordingly, two nodes in the feature group corresponding to E₄ are two leaf nodes of A (t₆). Then, the edges from node A (t₆) to the two nodes A (t₄) and e (t₄) corresponding to E₄ are established. Similarly, by tracing forward from A (t₄) (corresponding to interaction event E₄), the last interaction event E₁ in which object A participates can be detected, and then the edges that point from A (t₄) to the two nodes corresponding to E₁ are established. by tracing forward from e (t₄), the last interaction event E₂ in which the object e participates is detected, and then the edges that point from e (t₄) to the two nodes corresponding to E₂ are established. As such, the dependency between nodes is determined, and edges are established between nodes to form the dynamic interaction graph shown in FIG. 4.

It should be noted that, in the example shown in FIG. 4, the first object and the second object in each interaction event are objects of different classifications, which are differentiated by letter cases, that is, an uppercase letter represents an object of a first classification, and a lowercase letter represents an object of a second classification. When a feature group is organized for an interaction event, the feature group is arranged as <an object of a first classification, an object of a second classification, interaction time>. Accordingly, when a dynamic interaction graph is formed, the object classifications are also differentiated in a similar way, that is, nodes corresponding to the object of the first classification in the same interaction event are arranged on the left side, and nodes corresponding to the object of the second classification are arranged on the right side. As such, if a node has two leaf nodes, which include the left node and the right node, the left node corresponds to the object of the first classification, and the right node corresponds to the object of the second classification.

If object classifications do not need to be differentiated, the two interaction objects in the interaction feature group and the dynamic interaction graph can be arranged in any order.

The method for and the process of constructing a dynamic interaction graph based on a dynamic interaction sequence are described above. For the method for processing an interaction object shown in FIG. 3, the process of constructing a dynamic interaction graph can be performed in advance or on site. Accordingly, in an implementation, in step 31, a dynamic interaction graph is constructed on site based on a dynamic interaction sequence. The construction method is described above. In another implementation, a dynamic interaction graph can be constructed based on a dynamic interaction sequence in advance. In step 31, the formed dynamic interaction graph is read or received.

It should be understood that the dynamic interaction graph constructed in the previous way has high scalability and can be easily updated dynamically based on new interaction events. Accordingly, step 31 can further include a process of updating the dynamic interaction graph.

In an implementation, whenever a new interaction event is detected, the dynamic interaction graph is updated based on the new interaction event. Specifically, in this implementation, an existing dynamic interaction graph constructed based on existing interaction sequences can be obtained, and a feature group corresponding to a new interaction event, that is, a new feature group, can be obtained. Then, the first object and the second object that are included in the new interaction feature group are added to an existing dynamic interaction graph as two new nodes. In addition, for each newly added node, it is determined whether the node has leaf nodes. If yes, edges from the newly added node to the two leaf nodes of the newly added node are added, thus forming an updated dynamic interaction graph.

In another implementation, a newly added interaction event can be detected at a predetermined time interval, such as every other hour, and a plurality of newly added interaction events in that time interval can be used to form a new interaction sequence. Alternatively, whenever a predetermined quantity (for example, 100) of new interaction events is detected, the predetermined quantity of new interaction events are used to form a new interaction sequence. Then, the dynamic interaction graph is constructed based on the new interaction sequence.

Specifically, in this implementation, an existing dynamic interaction graph constructed based on existing interaction sequences can be obtained, and the new interaction sequence described above can be can be obtained, where the new interaction sequence includes a plurality of newly added interaction feature groups. Then, for each new interaction feature group, the first object and the second object that are included in the new interaction feature group are added to an existing dynamic interaction graph as two new nodes. In addition, for each newly added node, it is determined whether the node has leaf nodes. If yes, edges from the newly added node to the two leaf nodes of the newly added node are added, thus forming an updated dynamic interaction graph.

In summary, in step 31, a dynamic interaction graph constructed based on a dynamic interaction sequence is obtained. Next, in step 32, in the obtained dynamic interaction graph, a current sequence corresponding to the current node to be analyzed is determined, where the current sequence includes a plurality of nodes within a predetermined range reachable from the current node through edges, and positional encoding of each of the plurality of nodes relative to the current node in the dynamic interaction graph.

The current node is a node corresponding to the interaction object to be analyzed. However, as described above, an interaction object can correspond to a plurality of nodes to express the states of the interaction object in different interaction events at different times. In order to express the latest state of the interaction object to be analyzed, in an implementation, a node that has no edge in the dynamic interaction graph is selected as a current node. That is, the node corresponding to the last interaction event in which the object to be analyzed participates is selected as the current node. For example, in the dynamic interaction graph shown in FIG. 4, when the interaction object A needs to be analyzed, node A (t₆) can be selected as the current node. However, this is not mandatory. In other implementations, for example, for the training purpose, another node can be selected as the current node; for example, for analyzing object A, node A (t₅) can alternatively be selected as the current node.

The current node can be used as the root node. The nodes that are sequentially reachable from the edges of the root node are obtained, and the positional encodings of these nodes relative to the root node are determined. The combinations of the nodes within the predetermined range and their positional encodings are arranged in order to form the current sequence corresponding to the current node.

In an implementation, the nodes within the predetermined range can be the nodes reachable through a predetermined quantity K of edges. The number K here is a predetermined hyperparameter, which can be selected based on the service condition. It should be understood that the predetermined number K represents the quantity of steps of the historical interaction event that is traced forward for expressing information about the current node. A larger number K indicates that earlier historical interaction information is considered.

In another implementation, the nodes within the predetermined range can alternatively be the nodes whose interaction times are within a predetermined time range. For example, the nodes within the predetermined range can be nodes that are detected by tracing forward from the interaction time of the current node for a period (for example, one day) and that are reachable from the edges of the current node.

In another implementation, the predetermined range takes into consideration both the quantity of edges and the time range. In other words, the nodes within the predetermined range can be the nodes that are reachable through a predetermined quantity K of edges and whose interaction times are within the predetermined time range.

In obtaining the nodes within the predetermined range, in an implementation, traversal is performed along the edges based on the width-first principle. In another implementation, traversal is performed based on the depth-first principle. Alternatively, in other implementations, traversal can be performed in another topology sorting way.

For each node within the predetermined range that is obtained through traversal, the positional encoding of the node relative to the root node is determined. In an implementation, the positional encoding can include the quantity of edges that the node passes relative to the root node, or can be referred to as an order.

In an implementation, as described above, the interaction objects in a dynamic interaction graph are classified into objects of a first classification and objects of a second classification. The object of the first classification is arranged on the left side of two nodes of the same interaction event as a left node, and the object of the second classification is arranged on the right side of the two nodes as a right node. In this case, the positional encoding further indicates whether the node is a left node or a right node.

FIG. 5 illustrates an example of a current sequence, according to an implementation. In the example shown in FIG. 5, assume that A (t₆) and b (t₆) in FIG. 4 are current nodes, respectively, and that the predetermined range is a certain time range, that is, from the interaction time of the current node to the earliest time t2. The dotted box in FIG. 5 shows the nodes within the predetermined time range described above.

A (t₆) is used as the root node, traversal is performed along the edges, and then the nodes reachable through the edges within the predetermined range can be obtained, including A (t₆), A (t₄), e (t₄), D (t₂), and e (t₂). Below these nodes are their positional encodings, which are shown in the form of L/Rn, where L/R indicates whether the node is a left node or a right node, and n indicates the quantity of edges that the root node passes. For example, the positional encoding L2 of node D (t₂) indicates that the node is a left node and is connected to the root node through two edges. The combinations of nodes and their positional encodings arranged in order form the current sequence corresponding to the current node. The right side of FIG. 5 shows sequence 1 that is obtained by using A (t₆) as the current node and sequence 2 that is obtained by using b (t₆) as the current node. Sequences corresponding to other nodes can also be obtained in a similar way.

Next, in step 33, the current sequence is input into the Transformer-based neural network model, and the current sequence is processed by using this model to obtain the feature vector corresponding to the current node.

As understood by a person skilled in the art, a Transformer-based model is usually used to perform natural language processing (NLP) tasks. The core feature of the Transformer-based model is its unique attention mechanism. When processing a natural language, such as a sentence, the Transformer model uses the attention mechanism to assign different attention coefficients to the word vectors in the sentence, so that the influence of the word in the sentence is considered more comprehensively. To inherit the way of processing a word sequence corresponding to a sentence from the Transformer-based model, in the implementations of the present specification, Transformer-based model is used to process the current sequence obtained from the dynamic interaction graph for the current node.

FIG. 6 is a schematic structural diagram illustrating a Transformer-based neural network model, according to an implementation. As shown in FIG. 6, the neural network model 600 includes an embedding layer 61 and attention layers 62 and 63. The embedding layer 61 obtains N embedded vectors based on node features and positional encodings of the nodes in the current sequence. The attention layer 62 is connected to the embedding layer 61. N embedded vectors are obtained from the embedding layer as input vectors, and the input vectors are combined based on the degree of correlation between the N input vectors to obtain N output vectors. Then the N output vectors are output to the subsequent attention layer 63. The attention layer 63 obtains the output of the preceding layer as an input vector, and performs an operation similar to that of the attention layer 62.

It should be understood that the structure shown in FIG. 6 is only an example, and the quantity of attention layers can be set as required. For example, one or more attention layers can be set. The neural network model determines the feature vector of the current node based on the N output vectors obtained from all the attention layers.

The following describes a specific operation process of each layer.

First, the embedding layer 61 obtains the current sequence corresponding to the current node. As described above, the current sequence a plurality of nodes within a predetermined range reachable from the current node through edges and positional encoding of each of the plurality of nodes relative to the current node. It should be understood that the length of the current sequence may vary with different current nodes, as shown in the example shown in FIG. 5. Therefore, a relatively great length N can be predetermined. If the actual length of the current sequence is less than N, vacancies are padded using default values. After the default values are padded, it can be considered that the length of the current sequence is N, that is, the current sequence includes N nodes and corresponding N positional encodings. Then, the embedding layer 61 can embed the node features and positional encoding of each node, and then combine them to obtain an initial embedded vector.

Specifically, the embedding layer can embed the node features of each node in the N nodes to obtain the N node embedded vectors. If a node represents a user, the node features can include attribute features of the user, such as age, occupation, education level, and area. If a node represents a product, the node features can include attribute features of the product, such as product classification, shelf time, and sales volume. When a node represents another interaction object, the original node features can be obtained accordingly. When the interaction feature group also includes the behavior feature f, the node features can also include the behavior feature fin the corresponding feature group.

In addition, the embedding layer embeds N positional encodings corresponding to N nodes to obtain N position embedded vectors.

Then, the N node embedded vectors and N position embedded vectors are combined. For example, N embedded vectors <A₁, A₂, . . . , A_(N)> are obtained through direct addition, weighted combination, etc.

The following describes operations of the attention layer. The attention layer obtains N input vectors <X₁, X₂, . . . , X_(N)> from the preceding layer, which can be expressed as matrix X. Then the attention layer uses the self-attention mechanism to transform, based on the degree of correlation between the input vectors, the input vectors to obtain N output vectors <Y₁, Y₂, . . . , Y_(N)>, which can be expressed as matrix Y. It should be understood that when the attention layer is directly connected to the embedding layer, for example, the attention layer 62 in FIG. 6, the obtained input vectors are the embedded vectors <A₁, A₂, . . . , A_(N)>; or when the attention layer is a subsequent attention layer, for example, the attention layer 63 in FIG. 6, the obtained input vectors are the output vectors <Y₁, Y₂, . . . , Y_(N)> of the preceding attention layer.

FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating operations of an attention layer, according to an implementation. The schematic diagram shows how the attention layer converts the input matrix X into the output matrix Y.

As shown in the figure, a first transformation matrix Q, a second transformation matrix K, and a third transformation matrix V are used to transform each input vector i in the N input vectors <X₁, X₂, . . . , X_(N)>, to respectively obtain a first intermediate vector (vector q), a second intermediate vector (vector k), and a third intermediate vector (vector v). In operation, the first transformation matrix Q, the second transformation matrix K, and the third transformation matrix V can be respectively used to transform the input matrix X formed by the N input vectors to obtain the matrix Q, the matrix K, and the matrix V of the input matrix, and then the matrices are respectively split to obtain the vector q, vector k, and vector v corresponding to the input vectors.

For any input vector X_(i) in the N input vectors, the degree of correlation between the input vector X_(i) and each input vector X_(j) is determined based on the dot product operation performed on the first intermediate vector (vector q, q_(i)) corresponding to the i^(th) input vector and each second intermediate vector (vector k, k_(j)) corresponding to each input vector X.

Although the result of the dot product operation performed on q_(i) and k_(j) can also be directly determined as the degree of correlation, more classically, the result of the dot product operation is divided by a constant, and then the softmax operation is performed, and the operation result is used as the degree of correlation between the input vectors X_(i) and X_(j), that is:

$\begin{matrix} {\alpha_{i,j} = {{softmax}\mspace{11mu}\left( \frac{q_{i} \cdot k_{j}}{\sqrt{d_{k}}} \right)}} & (1) \end{matrix}$

Then, the third intermediate vector (vector v, v_(j)) corresponding to each input vector X_(j) can weighted by using the correlation between the i^(th) input vector X_(i) and each input vector X_(j) as a weighting factor to obtain the i^(th) combination vector C_(i) corresponding to the i^(th) input vector X_(i).

$\begin{matrix} {C_{i} = {\sum\limits_{j = 1}^{N}{\alpha_{i,j}v_{j}}}} & (2) \end{matrix}$

Therefore, the vector sequence <C₁, C₂, . . . , C_(N)> of N combination vectors or the matrix C corresponding to N input vectors can be obtained. Based on the combination vector sequence, N output vectors can be obtained.

Specifically, in an implementation, the vector sequence of the N combination vectors can be directly used as the N output vectors, that is, Y₁=C_(i). In this case, the output matrix Y is the combination vector matrix C, which can also be written as follows:

$\begin{matrix} {Y = {{{softmax}{\;\;}\left( \frac{{QK}^{T}}{\sqrt{d_{k}}} \right)}V}} & (3) \end{matrix}$

In another implementation, the attention layer uses a multi-head attention mechanism, that is, the attention layer maintains m sets of transformation matrices, and each set of transformation matrices includes the first transformation matrix Q, the second transformation matrix K, and the third transformation matrix V, so that the previous operations can be performed concurrently to obtain m combination vector sequences (that is, m matrices C), where each vector sequence includes N combination vectors obtained based on one set of transformation matrices.

In this case, the attention layer concatenates the m combination vector sequences to obtain a concatenated matrix, and then the concatenated matrix is transformed by using the fourth transformation matrix W to obtain the final output matrix Y. The output matrix Y is split to correspond to N output vectors <Y₁, Y₂, . . . , Y_(N)>.

Through the previous operation process, the attention layer performs transformation operation based on the degree of correlation between the N input vectors to obtain N output vectors.

As described above, the neural network model can include a plurality of attention layers. In an implementation, the plurality of attention layers can be stacked in a residual network way to form a neural network model.

If there are a plurality of attention layers, in an implementation, the neural network model can combine the N output vectors obtained by each of the plurality of attention layers to obtain the feature vector of the current node. In another implementation, the neural network model can extract only the N output vectors from the last attention layer and combine the N output vectors to obtain the feature vector of the current node.

As such, the neural network model obtains the feature vector of the current node based on the current sequence corresponding to the current node to be analyzed in many ways. Because the current sequence includes each leaf node related to the current node and the positions of these leaf nodes relative to the current node, the information reflects the interaction history of the interaction object corresponding to the current node, in this way, the feature vector of the current node not only expresses the features of the interaction object itself, but also expresses the influence of the interaction object on the interaction events, so that the characteristics of the interaction object can be fully represented.

It should be understood that the neural network model relies on a large quantity of parameters, such as the parameters in the previous transformation matrices (matrix Q, matrix K, matrix V, etc.), in the process of determining the feature vector of the current node. These parameters need to be determined by training the neural network model. In different implementations, the neural network model can be trained by performing different tasks.

In an implementation, the neural network model is trained by predicting an interaction. FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating training a neural network model, according to another implementation. As shown in FIG. 8, in step 81, a historical feature group corresponding to a historical interaction event is obtained, where the historical feature group is the feature group corresponding to the historical interaction event that has occurred. In a specific example, a historical interaction feature group can be obtained from the previous dynamic interaction sequence. Two objects included in the historical interaction feature group are called a first sample object and a second sample object.

In step 82, a first sequence corresponding to a first sample object and a second sequence corresponding to the second sample object are respectively determined in the dynamic interaction graph. Specifically, a first node corresponding to the first sample object and a second node corresponding to the second sample object are respectively determined in the dynamic interaction graph, and the first node and the second node are respectively used as current nodes to determine the corresponding first sequence and the corresponding second sequence in a way similar to step 32 in FIG. 3.

Then, in step 83, the first sequence and the second sequence are respectively input into a neural network model to obtain a first feature vector corresponding to the first sample object and a second feature vector corresponding to the second sample object. For a specific process in which the neural network model determines the feature vector of the corresponding sample object based on the node and its positional encoding, references can be referred to the description about step 33. Detailed description is omitted here.

Next, in step 84, if there's an interaction between the first sample object and the second sample object is predicted based on the first feature vector and the second feature vector to obtain a prediction result. Usually, a binary classifier can be used to predict whether an interaction occurs between two sample objects.

Then, in step 85, a predicted loss is determined based on the previous prediction result. It should be understood that the first sample object and the second sample object are obtained from the feature group of the history interaction event, so an interaction has actually occurred, which means that a label of the relationship between the two sample objects is known. According to the form of loss function, such as the cross entropy calculation method, the loss of this prediction can be determined based on the previous prediction result.

Then, in step 86, the neural network model is updated based on the predicted loss. Specifically, the parameters of neural network can be adjusted in ways such as gradient descent and backward propagation to update the neural network model, until the prediction accuracy of the neural network model satisfies the requirement.

The object relationship is predicted by using two sample objects in historical interaction events, which is equivalent to training with positive samples. In an implementation, two sample objects in a dynamic interaction graph that do not interact with each other can be used as negative samples for further training to achieve better training effects.

According to another implementation, the neural network model is trained by predicting classifications of interaction objects. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating training a neural network model, according to another implementation. As shown in FIG. 9, in step 91, a sample object is selected from a dynamic interaction sequence, and a classification label of the sample object is obtained. The sample object can be any interaction object in any feature group included in the dynamic interaction sequence, and the classification label of the sample object can be a label related to a service scenario. For example, if the sample object is a user, the classification label can be a predetermined user group label, or a user risk level label; or if the sample object is a product, the classification label can be a product classification label. Such labels can be generated through manual labeling or other service-related processing.

In step 92, a sample sequence corresponding to the sample object is determined in the dynamic interaction graph. Specifically, a node corresponding to the sample object can be determined in a dynamic interaction graph, and a corresponding sample sequence is determined by using the node as a current node and in a way similar to step 32 in FIG. 3.

Then, in step 93, the sample sequence is input into a neural network model to obtain a feature vector of the sample object. For a specific process, references can be made to the description about step 33. Detailed description is omitted here for simplicity.

Next, in step 94, the classification of the sample object is predicted based on the feature vector of the sample object to obtain a prediction result. A classifier can be used to predict the probability that a sample is of a classification.

Then, in step 95, the predicted loss is determined based on the prediction result and the classification label. For example, the cross entropy calculation method can be used to predict the probability and classification label in the result, and the loss of this prediction can be determined.

In step 96, the neural network model is updated based on the predicted loss. As such, the neural network model is trained by performing the task of predicting classifications of the sample objects.

In summary, in the implementations of the present specification, a dynamic interaction graph is constructed based on the dynamic interaction sequence, where the dynamic interaction graph reflects a time sequence relationship between the interaction events, and mutual influence transferred between the interaction objects through interaction events. Feature vectors of an interaction object can be extracted based on a node sequence that is related to the interaction object in the dynamic interaction graph and a trained Transformer-based neural network model. As such, the influence of other interaction objects in each interaction event is introduced into the feature vector, so that deep features of the interaction object can be comprehensively expressed.
